This change essentially removes mp_thread_self() and instead add
mp_thread_id to track threads and have ability to query current thread
id during runtime.
This will be useful for upcoming win32 implementation, where accessing
thread handle is different than on pthreads. Greatly reduces complexity.
Otherweis locked map of tid <-> handle is required which is completely
unnecessary for all mpv use-cases.
Note that this is the mp_thread_id, not to confuse with system tid. For
example on threads-posix implementation it is simply pthread_t.
since i was going to fix the include order of stdatomic, might as well
sort the surrouding includes in accordance with the project's coding
style.
some headers can sometime require specific include order. standard
library headers usually don't. but mpv might "hack into" the standard
headers (e.g pthreads) so that complicates things a bit more.
hopefully nothing breaks. if it does, the style guide is to blame.
replace it with <stdatomic.h> and replace the mp_atomic_* typedefs with
explicit _Atomic qualified types.
also add missing config.h includes on some files.
Add an infrastructure for collecting performance-related data, use it in
some places. Add rendering of them to stats.lua.
There were two main goals: minimal impact on the normal code and normal
playback. So all these stats_* function calls either happen only during
initialization, or return immediately if no stats collection is going
on. That's why it does this lazily adding of stats entries etc. (a first
iteration made each stats entry an API thing, instead of just a single
stats_ctx, but I thought that was getting too intrusive in the "normal"
code, even if everything gets worse inside of stats.c).
You could get most of this information from various profilers (including
the extremely primitive --dump-stats thing in mpv), but this makes it
easier to see the most important information at once (at least in
theory), partially because we know best about the context of various
things.
Not very happy with this. It's all pretty primitive and dumb. At this
point I just wanted to get over with it, without necessarily having to
revisit it later, but with having my stupid statistics.
Somehow the code feels terrible. There are a lot of meh decisions in
there that could be better or worse (but mostly could be better), and it
just sucks but it's also trivial and uninteresting and does the job. I
guess I hate programming. It's so tedious and the result is always shit.
Anyway, enjoy.
